: '''Condensation polymerisation''' [[Chemical Reaction|reactions]] which [[product|produce]] [[Water]] can happen when one end of a [[molecule]] carries an -OH [[Functional Group|group]] while the other end carries a -COOH [[Functional Group|group]]. These [[Chemical Reaction|react]] together joining the [[molecule]]s forming a [[Polyester]].
: '''Condensation polymerisation''' [[Chemical Reaction|reactions]] which [[product|produce]] [[Water]] can also happen when one [[molecule]] carries two -OH [[Functional Group|groups]] at either end of the [[molecule]] while the other [[molecule]] carries two -COOH [[Functional Group|groups]]. These two [[molecule]]s [[Chemical Reaction|react]] together joining the [[molecule]]s forming a [[Polyester]] and [[product|producing]] [[Water]].

: '''Condensation polymerisation''' [[Chemical Reaction|reactions]] of [[Amino Acid]]s [[product|produce]] [[Water]].
: Each [[Amino Acid]] has an NH<sub>3</sub> [[Functional Group|group]] and an -COOH [[Functional Group|group]] which [[Chemical Reaction|react]] to [[Product|produce]] [[Polypeptide]]s and [[Water]].
